Do you have access to the C4D and POV source code ?
I know it's complicated but you might get an idea of where they differ.
A while back I wrote a win program to make polygons and prisms for POV.
The first try I got the code straight from the internet.But it had little errors
like the one you showed. Then I went right to POV source. Now it is a lot
better.
Of course you can do some trial an error by changing the control points by some
magic number. I would use a vector to move the control points either from the
other control point in a bezier_spline or the start point for other splines.
Hope this helps.
Have Fun!
